Hot cocoa gets a campfire-inspired makeover that is equal parts cozy and theatrical. Spiceology S'mores Blend brings toasted marshmallow and graham cracker warmth to a rich scratch-made cocoa base topped with billowy meringue and crispy carbonated sugar. It is the kind of drink that makes winter feel like an occasion.
